Biological Activity
Navitoclax (ABT-263) is a potent and oral Bcl-2 family protein inhibitor that binds to multiple anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins, such as Bcl-xL, Bcl-2 and Bcl-w, with a Ki of less than 1 nM.
In Vitro
Navitoclax (ABT-263) is active against approximately one-half of the cell lines of the PPTP in vitro panel. The median IC50 for all of the lines in the panel is 1.91 µM[1]. Navitoclax in combination with chemotherapy agents leads most ovarian cancer cell lines a synergistic response, and enhances the caspase activation at all paclitaxel doses tested in both SK-OV-3 and IGROV-1 cell lines[2].
